Exactly

Q

Absolutely. Not to mention Consumer Reports and JD Power lists have long been known to have zero credibility.

If you couldn’t tell by the cheap ads in the video itself lol

Maybe Land Rover doesn't sell enough cars to get enough surveys and reports? They sell much less than any of the SUVs on the list. Also, most of the cars on the list were all new or nearly all new models (2-3 years after redesign). After several years, most of the kinks have been worked out. A first year model during a pandemic with labor and supply shortages will likely have a lot more problems than the average NEW vehicle. Most new vehicles have something like 1 problem (or what surveyed customers consider a problem) per vehicle on average (or around 100 problems per 100 vehicles) in the first 3 years according to JD Power. Many cars will have 0 problems, but a few lemons might have 10 or 20 or more problems. So a brand new generation model with teething problems or more lemons that year might average 1.5 or 2 problems per vehicle in the first 3 years and be in the bottom of the rankings. But even these worst cars weren't getting a huge number of cars with problems or a huge number of problems, just noticeably more than the average new car which is getting more reliable than ever. These weren't 5+ year old vehicles with high miles or well out of warranty where EVERYTHING turns to dookie in the least reliable models, but this was based on "predicted reliability" which is hogwash. You can't judge the overall reliability of a model based on its first year on the market...

BMW and AUDI too. They both sell more than enough SUVs to make CR's testing list, and are both more likely to break than a couple of the SUV's on this list. CR lost most of their credibility long ago.

Right!Range rover sucks!

then you might as well say Jaguar too. They are the same vehicles....

@@Cbo__25 You're absolutely correct. Had a 2004 Jag S Type R and it brought misery into my life. Sold it to a friend who I warned about buying it. Have a Lexus now and couldn't be happier.

How many times do you see a tow truck being towed?

Hahahaha....you're right

@@rickj1983 🤣🤣 only twice in my life and I'm 45 so that's not too shabby. Wish I were looking to own a tow truck.

@@rickj1983 I have seen a bunch of International tow trucks being towed

🤣🤣🤣

Indeed!

I'm at 180k 7 years on grand cherokee limited no issues less than 100k miles it shouldn't tear up

LOL 30k mileage? Is that a bench mark for 1900's era cars? Today car bench mark is at 100k. And 60k is just a break in period of owning a car. In my opinion bench mark should be at 200k, where the Japan cars dominate.

i definitely don’t believe this about the GV80

And big anerican trucks and suvs.. tahoes expeditions etc

I have a GV80 Prestige. Super happy, this list is stupid, the GV80 is a luxury model not a CRV. I also have no idea how it can be on this list.

Because you are Korean

Many XC90 issues can be kept to the T8's. Also, TCAM batteries on 2022's

Much agreed, my mom went from a Cayenne to a gv70 and she has 0 regrets. It’s got nearly 4k on it and has had no issues thus far. Interior is better than the Porsches in my opinion too, they did a killer job

I have a gv80 n had it almost a 1yr n had zero problems so I guess it's on how well u take care of ur car

@@corriuadorsey3728 Truth

I have a GV80 Advanced and I love mine!

I’ve had my GV80 for a yr and so far so good.

Right. And how is the GV80 “expensive” when it undercuts its competitors in price???

I second that… my check engine light came on… but they said it was my gas cap Rick Case said… but I will keep an eye on it… this is my second one❤❤❤

No problems in six months =/= "reliable". OMG you people...

@@ew403488 wow you got a good one. I took one home . For the weekend. I opened it up. Awesome ride. But when I too it back to the dealership. My check engine light came on.. BIG red flag for me. !!! I brought the Tesla. Instead

@@xDDLFxD Undercutting competitors from established luxury brands doesn’t mean the Genesis isn’t expensive or “overpriced”. Smh 🤦🏽‍♂️

You need to go back and check the times. He literally spent more time on the problems than the cost

Especially the repair and maintenance cost!

lmao what are u talking about? GV80 can go for 65K for a 4 cylinder, so there is no value. I would rather get me a Lincoln Aviator, which is actually the true value king and competitor to the GV80 in the segment. Hell I'd even rather get the new MDX over the GV80 too since the Koreans is asking way too much and too confident. Aviator starts at 51K and GV80 48K, so on the first glance the GV80 is undercutting the Lincoln. However not only does the Aviator also has RWD, but comes standard with a base 3.0L Twin Turbo Ecoboost V6 with more horsepower and torque than either the 2.5 or the optional 3.5 of the GV80. Also in the GV80 you need to pay extra 11K on top of the 48K starting price to get the 3.5 (and still don't have as much power), so comparatively spec by spec, GV80 is more expensive. Of course the Black Label Aviator is most expensive than the GV80 but you get more ownership and membership features that you don't get in the GV80. Not to mention the Aviator is bigger vehicle and can tow and haul more as well. Hell even a front wheel drive QX60 mommy mobile can tow more than the GV80. Ecoboost is also proven to be reliable with the 3.5L reaching north of 300000 miles.

Genesensitivity!

I have a Genesis G80 (not a SUV) for over a year and it's amazing. Also have owned a BMW 740 and a couple Acura. The cost and reliability can't be matched.

If a car break down at 10k mileage, then they will go bankrupt in a year. Try 200k, then we'll see.

My next car!

Yep, 1 year in and a head turner for sure..

10K and 1 year? Dude a Russian car can do that! LOL. My 2011 Jag XJ Supercharged was built 12/10 meaning it is about six months away from being 12 years old. 96K miles, purrs like a kitty. Only replaced the water pump. Your HyunKiaGen will never make it to 12 years. 🙂"Best car I've ever owned" my azz.

@@trevorsutherland5263 i have kia with 200k still going strong. I intentionally drive hard too just to get an excuse to break the car and replace it but it just won't die. Never had Genesis but I heard nothing but great things so far

GV80 is worth it. Love mine.

Got my 2.5 Prestige last year and now I can't find any car that is even close to compare to pricewise. I need to get another this year it will probably be a Palisade.

RDX is missing too. That’s a good thing.

@BearPaw Which brand?

GV80 is an amazing deal. In exchange for less power and less refined engines you get an incredibly luxurious vehicle. I put my mom in one and have been eying it ever since. Really weird that he’s calling a vehicle that pretty much every single car reviewer has called a great package for its price point overpriced.

Exactly!

They were made much better in 2002

Thats why, built much better than this new crap

That was a different era

Same, I had a 2005 Escalade, 2010 Escalade and 2016 Yukon Denali. None of them ever left me stranded. Of course I have this weird habit of doing routine maintenance.

2001 Yukon with 201,600 miles and still going. Only replaced the oil line!!!

I would hope so...

@@imdone1965 I know so

@@Israel85324 when you hit 100K miles , then tell me how it's going...

Nobody should brag about having zero problems after one year of purchasing a new car, sounds like you expected something to go wrong and it exceeded your expectations so congrats on that

@@dabbadoo2226 I agree! But it’s a Genesis. The type of buyers of the GV80 have no clue what to expect from these products. They’ve been _told_ by the internet it’s a luxury vehicle of German build quality but Japanese reliability and all they know is it has the surface beauty they’re looking for and they’re saving a few pennies. But the *reality* is it’s neither German nor Japanese, it’s South Korean and Hyundai Motors who is notorious for class action lawsuits here in the U.S. makes them. So when they reach 6 months, 7 months, 8 months, etc. of little to no issues these customers are eager to deem them “reliable” as they don’t have many other real world examples to go off of and it’s just nerves and wishful thinking. Just ask MotorTrend how “reliable” their 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T was. As they approach 100,000 miles the Hyundai/KIA family ties will begin to shine though.

This video was way off on the GV80!!!!

I have a 2021 gv80, AWD 3.5t advanced. Drives like a dream. No problem so far. I mistakenly increased the pressure in the tires during winter. Caused the wheel to feel strange. I put the pressures back in factory numbers and it purred like a cat. I love my car, though I paid $4000 above mrsp. No regrets. Always brings a smile to my face when driving. Previous cars owned were Saab, Infinity, Mercedes and Acura. I stand with my GV80.

The videos are misleading or the anecdotal reviews you read in the comments are misleading? At the end of the day people are going to believe what they _want_ to believe and do what makes them happy regardless of what they find. 🤷🏾‍♂️

@@maggienero1736 But it was accurate about every other vehicle on the list? Lol, this is what I mean by Hyundai fans are a different breed. 😂

Totally misleading!

Oh yeah. I had one just like yours. It only had 15 thousand miles on it. I only had the car for 2 weeks. Then my transmission took a dump on me.) ford had to buy it back. ! Because they knew it was a lemon. !! Never again. Worst car ever made. !! One week later I got a letter from the ford corporate office. Telling me about a another car. NO thanks !!

Had a 2005 ford explorer. Needed a new transmission after 30k miles...

Ilove my 2018 3,5 non turbo Explorer Limited

Brought a brand new Escape. Worst car I have ever owned. Has been to the shop three times in less than a year. Now dealing with a lemon law attorney. Bad brakes, transmission and fuel pump.

Same here. My 2017 Ford explorer started having issues within months. Transmission of course. I love the ride and look but I will never get a Ford SUV. Ford pick ups are better but the explorer sucks.

I never experience that on my 2017 XC90.

for real... I did a review on my '16 XC90. I address all the common issues. It also does not have transmission issues as stated.

True

Exactly! This video is full of rubbish

The first Volvo we got was a 2016 XC90, never had an issue what so ever and just felt like a tank, you felt safe in it. We returned it when the lease was over but I still miss that car.

you probably had an older version with a Mitsubishi engine.

Same here. Own a GLE hybrid and very much satisfied with it

Bmw,audi and benz care more about performance not quality anymore. The parts are beyond cheap and over prices and most don't even know they're built in north America and Mexico 😂😂😂 them shits ain't even real German cars anymore

Camry? Yuck

@@andyb7719 classic camry, accord, highlander, sienna, fusion, are for intelligent people. They knows what they are doing, not what people thought about them. Volvo/Chinese cars went down in reliability in the past decades. Mazda quality and class go up, something that Hyundai/Kia also try although some defects is specific in USA factory related to engine assembly.

@@andyb7719 To each his own. I bought a new '22 Camry black night shade edition. It was the first model that didn't look like a family car but can hold a family. Gone are the days when I want to waste money on a vehicle that only gets 15 mpg. My Volvo cars were expensive to fix when they broke. Toyota has a great reputation for longevity. I like the car I bought. Nobody said you have to buy one.

@@rondhole you are insulting real car enthusiasts because they don't llike a camry and highlander. M5 AND AMGs are loved by real car enthusiasts not grandparents.

Any issues so far?

@@azher191 Just when it's raining, the water somehow collects in the middle. But the ride quality and the comfort is excellent. My kids love the LED color changes and the panoramic sun roof.

@@slash2freeze nice. But the water collects where? On the roof?

@@azher191 In the front windshield. So it's harder to see with all the water collecting in the front windshield. It didn't help I was driving at night. But day time driving with rain was not an issue.

Exactly what I was thinking looking at this list. Seems just a blind list.

Your are 100 percent right

Your vehicle may have been the % that was ok. You're not looking at overall stats.

@@Chris-de2qc Most reports of vehicles that will last 200K miles or more include the GM full size SUVs. I consider myself a car guy, so I am almost always reading owner reviews and looking at this type of "Top XXX" list. I've personally had a Yukon and Tahoe that both went over 200K without any major repairs. Regular maintenance and a couple fuel pumps, and that's about it. I've had poor quality vehicles as well (one is one this list), but I stand behind my statement that CR is no longer an unbiased resource. They solicit reviews from subscribers, of which they may get a few hundred or maybe a thousand for a particular model, while the manufacturer sells thousands or even hundreds of thousands of these vehicles. Also, there is no way a list of unreliable vehicles is accurate without a Range Rover.

I agree with you. I too cancelled CR subscription. I have seen them indicate low ratings on particular vehicles when there is other vast compelling evidence to the conntrary.

You mean the company? You’re basically saying older cars are more reliable which really isn’t the case

Our 2018 Suburban was bought brand new, we have had no reliability issues! The used car we bought for our daughter, well that's another story!

@@chrisstromberg6527 I meant it as in an old platform still in manufacture like the Dodge Challenger has been in production since 2005. A new Dodge Challenger would be far more reliable than a new Grand Wagoneer.

German Vehicles lovely design great interiors but sad electronics failure . Japan electronics stand out as premium and reliability stakes. Happy customer award by far !!! 12:46

When Lincoln's were Lincolns with the bagged continental best ride Ive ever been it felt like you were riding on a cloud couldnt believe how nice that car rode! And Im a not really a Ford guy but I would buy anything before I bought an import..your sending all your money overseas! And their junk is worse than ours!

@Richard Forbes LoL! Your comment made me chuckle. Hate to break it to ya, but all of American automobile companies (excluding Tesla claims of being 100% American made) have been installing numerous foreign parts in their vehicles for decades, so technically, you have never owned a 100% American made automobile unless you have owned or own a Tesla. I assumed every American adult would have known this information nowadays, but I shouldn't assume things as everyone learns at their own pace. Something else you should be informed about - China is a major stakeholder with Ford & GM; they own 50% of Ford and 49% of GM. You're talking to someone who customized his cars to the extreme inside & out for the 1st 10 years of having his license. I had a Grand Am GT with a full custom air ride suspension, and although that car felt like I was riding on a cloud (just as you stated), my G80, believe it or not, rides 10x smoother than the Grand Am did. That should already be a given seeing that technology advances with time, therefore it would only make sense that a 2021 luxury vehicle would have a smoother ride than a fully customized 2000 Grand Am GT air ride suspension. That's 21 years of innovation in the works. Lastly, there are a few things to say here.. 1) I'm still trying to understand why you threw your two cents in stating that imports are junk and they are worse than ours?.. You JUST said "I'm not really a Ford guy but I would buy anything before I bought an import." That tells me you have never owned a foreign luxury vehicle so we're supposed to take advice from someone who claims to have knowledge about something they obviously know nothing about simply put - you have never experienced it 1st hand 2) since my original comment a couple months ago, the Aviator had to go in the shop bc one of the cheap plastic pieces on the interior broke and had to be replaced. Betcha can't guess where that part was made and shipped from?🤣 3) you stated all I'm doing is sending my money overseas.. actually, what's really happening is the bank that approved my auto loan is taking my money until the loan is paid off. The dealerships are the ones doing direct business with auto manufacturers in other countries so technically, they are the ones "sending their money overseas." Sorry about this. I just thought it was appropriate to explain the facts of what's actually going on. If you want to continue with your current way of thinking, please, by all means, go for it. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

Because import cars are trash they were when I was a kid and they are better now but there still not made like the cars in the US

Buy either Sienna or Odyssey. Then you're good up to 200,000 miles or more. I've seen a 500,000 miles SIenna pulled in for an oil change at my friend shop.

Always bought on CR recommendations, but the loved the G70. It has a so-so review for the 4 cylinder,but they didn't review the v6. , which was priced $10k less than a Audi S3, and blew it away. Found it very odd they don't review the 6, as it is a big seller.

@@johns9969 i believe that engine was reviewed in other models. Good reviews in those. Driving dynamics are great also. Take a test drive.

There is a gv80 in my garage it's been there for almost a year and I couldn't be happier. BMW, Audi type of amenities for much less. I also own a jx35, (infiniti qx60) same shit I heard about that one. 150k miles, NO transmission issues and the thing is my daily driver for dogs and carrying cargo. I will say this... my dogs HATE the gv80. Even in eco mode it still has so much acceleration that they roll around like soup cans in the back. So, my dogs would agree with this vid but not for the stated reasons.

I can say I’ve purchased 2 (Buick Enclave and Pontiac Torrent). Both had so many issues. AC failure at 14,000 miles, body was easily dented and so many electrical issues. Visit the GM forums to see how many have premature failures. I didn’t expect much from a Pontiac, but was extremely disappointed with Buick. I would never purchase another GM, my money would be better spent calling an Uber. My experience with owning GM vehicles

Sadly ironic considering how expensive those are compared to other comparable luxury SUVs.

80k miles hasn't been alot since the 80s.

I had a Tiguan give my Z06 a run for its money up in the mountains. I dunno how reliable it is but I'll never forget that handling!!

Test drove a vw tiguan and it sounded and drove like a jeep car . Interior was very plastic . End up buying a Lincoln Corsair nicely equipped , Panoramic roof , air cooled leather seating upgraded wheels , etc for around the same price as the VW . So far 25000 trouble free miles . The car has the most quiet cabin I've ever road in . The styling inside and out is beautiful and the 4 cylinder turbo is pretty quick and fun to drive . Paid around 43000 back in 2020 which is about what they wanted for a similarly equipped Tiguen

Replacing timing chains at 80k is not good. Timing chains should go to 150k at the minimum dependent on driving habits.

The main problem with the new Volvos is the downsizing of the engines. I got 2 old XC 60 and had over 500 000 kilometers with each and no problems.
